Asymmetric 1,4-Dihydroxylation of 1,3-Dienes by Catalytic Enantioselective Diboration [J. Am. Chem. Soc. 2009, 131, 9134–9135]. Heather E. Burks, Laura T. Kliman, and James P. Morken*
Additional analytical data have revealed that the platinum complex used for this study is more accurately represented by the formula Pt(dba)3 rather than Pt2(dba)3. While Pt2(dba)3 used at the loading described in the paper is equally effective, the data in the paper was acquired with Pt(dba)3, and therefore Table 1, Scheme 3, and Scheme 4 should read “3 mol % Pt(dba)3”. The Supporting Information has been modified to provide procedures for the preparation of both Pt complexes. The absolute configuration of the product in entry 9 of Table 1 is opposite to that depicted. Subsequent experiments for entry 11 in Table 1 have revealed that, while
